3:01 pm
election. the court says it will. it's unclear which ruling they will release, but this is notable colorado votes on tuesday the justices might very well wish to settle once and for all the question of whether donald trump is disqualified from that state's ballot. and therefore, other states where this is upending question and this tuesday, the super tuesday, when voters will likely end the republican primary, give donald trump his party's nomination. that's at least what trump wants. thursday, president biden, he will get a primetime platform to sell his own track record for a mammoth america, his state of the union, offering a rare opportunity to speak to millions of americans, tried to convince them that he deserves four more years. it happens as a spate of new political polls show that biden there's more vulnerable than ever with
3:02 pm
general election voters joining me now to discuss all this democratic congressman from new york, tom suozzi, he just won a special election in what democrats called a bellwether district for november. thanks so much for taking the time tonight >> hey, jim. thanks for having me on >> so i watched you're swearing in speech on the floor of congress and you said that your election was a message to wake up, that voters want democrats and republicans to work together. they don't want so much partisanship. i hear that message. i wonder when you look at these polls and by the way, they've been consistent, not isolated, that show at a minimum a lack of enthusiasm i'm for joe biden in november. do you think these are a wake-up call for joe biden and the white house >> i don't think the presidential election has been joined yet. i think it's going to take a couple more months. the president has got to do a lot to perform. i think thursday night is going to be a big night for him. he has a tremendous record to run on. but the polls talk about the
3:03 pm
fact about his age, and he can't change his age, but he can communicate more effectively. the things he's done regarding infrastructure, regarding creating jobs, rudoren, guarding, addressing inflation better than any other western country. so the president's done and a lot of great things to improve infrastructure infrastructure and manufacturing and so much more. but he's got to sell that to the people and the democrats as a whole has to help him sell that. so i think that as the campaign joins and it becomes a clear choice between two candidates things are going to change. >> you advise the president to do what you did in your race, which was to lean into the immigration issue and say, listen, we got to do something about it. but we democrats, we tried, we have this bipartisan agreement in the senate got rejected by the house do you believe the white house needs to lean into that line of argument as well, do you think it would work nationally, not just in new york, three
3:04 pm
>> yeah. i think the president is doing that already he's got to do more of it. every single day, quite frankly. and it's not my advice, it's me looking at history, looking at the president clinton, president clinton used to take the issue they were attacking him on, make it his own, proposed a comprehensive, bipartisan solution. if the republicans go along with him, hey, we finally move forward after 35 years of not dealing with this issue. if they don't go along with him, it's very easy for him to point out, hey, you're just playing politics and you're trying to weaponize this issue, which is clear when you hear that president trump says, let's not pass that bipartisan law because that would give victory to biden. i want to run on the chaos. that's just as mitt romney said, that's appalling >> yeah. and look to your point. i mean, listen, clinton basically took the contract within america may made it his own and he won a second term. i do want to ask you this because you look at the general election polling and you and others make the point. listen,
3:05 pm
they're polls, votes actually matter and you ran in a district that was plus eight read just what, 14, 15 months ago, george santos wins it, you win plus a that's a sick it's team point turn in that time period. and i wonder i know that some pollsters will say the specials aren't really great indicators for a national election. but let's be frank. we've had a batch of these, right? in different places. do you do look at your district? as a bellwether >> the thing i looked to with my campaign is to prove that campaigns matter when it comes down to choosing between two candidates. and the campaigns they run that has a very big impact on the results so if the voters have to choose where the campaign has been joined for real between biden and trump. and they're both running on their records and they're both running on their vision for the next four years that's when
3:06 pm
people will really start to focus you see that a president trump has been underperforming in his polling in the actual primaries. and the democrats as a general rule, have been overperforming as far as polling. and all these different elections that have been leading up over the past couple of years. so campaigns matter issues matter. i think this immigration issue is going to be a very, very big issue. people want us to address it. if they see the democrats are actually trying to address it and are proposing a reasonable solutions and are trying to get something done and the republicans is just saying it's a problem. it's a problem it's a problem. it's really big problem. and then you say, well, what are you want to do? well, it's a problem. it's a problem. it's a really big, but what do you want to do? it's a problem that's not enough so that's what happened to my campaign. and i think that the president has demonstrated that he's willing to move. he's willing to compromise. he wants to get something done. and he's being
3:07 pm
obstructed not only by the house and some members of the senate, but by former president trump, who's telling his acolytes not to do anything. so i think campaigns matter issues matter. i think the president has got to really perform on state of the union >> the biden administration has talked about some executive we've actions your district in new york area, like many cities, has been hit by an influx of some of these migrants who've been moved up from the south. oftentimes by red-state governors. what executive action would you like the president to take that would make a difference in your district? >> i don't know that. i'd like to get money back to new york state and to new york city so that they can help pay for the crushing burden that we have right now and we need legislation to do that. but i think it's important to note that the system we have now was designed for 400,000 people right now, there's millions of people that are coming across
3:08 pm
each year and that 400,000 million when they say we need more border agents, we need more immigration judges. we need more detention bunk beds, which were all part of the bipartisan deal. we need to build more wall fine. will build more wall. we need to give more money to the states and the cities affected by this we need to improve the asylum process so the cases can be processed in a matter of weeks instead of a matter of years. those will all make a big i keep on making this point. james lankford is the republican senator who negotiated this deal in the senate you're not going to find a smarter, harder working, more honest, conservative. then you're going to find a gem lankford. he negotiated the best possible deal you could get. anybody says the wall street journal endorsed the deal. the us chamber of commerce endorsed this compromise the border patrol union president was a big trump supporter, endorsed this compromise. why won't president trump and others support this compromise?
3:09 pm
because they're playing politics. so we just need to keep on making that point over. can i say one other thing, jim? very important. we keep on here about the 5,000, 5,000, 5,000? those 5,000, if under this compromise proposal will be processed on a timely basis 90% of those 5,000 will be sent back right away. >> yeah. so it will not be 5,000. it'll be 500 or less. >> and james lankford, republican senator debunk that fire if thousand talking point much as you are repeatedly, but clearly didn't move trump. you mentioned biden's age last night, saturday night live spoofed the president's supposedly extraordinarily high behind the scenes energy, which we often heard from his advisers have a listen. i want to get your thoughts on one thing. >> i was with joe biden for the past we get and he wiped me out. >> okay. so you feel he's up to the job then i was just with him and behind closed doors,
3:10 pm
he's a dynamo. joe went into beast mode. he said, we're going to tighten this border. look how easy i can cross it. then he parked poured up to the top of the border wall you flipped into the rio grande and came back up with a fish in his mouth >> to your point, you can't change your age. does he have to try to laugh laugh it off? >> yeah. i remember this. i'm 61 years old. i remember this was president reagan and they used to make fun of him. and any goofed up in his first debate. and every said, oh, he's too old, he's, he's losing a step. he's fallen apart and he came back for the second debate. and he said, and they've brought up his age and said, mr. president, your age is age going to be a problem for you? in his campaign? and the president reagan said, i'm not going to let the youth and inexperience of my opponent effect this race. i mean, so yes, he's got he can't change his age. he is how old he is. everybody knows that we should be pushing the fact that he's accomplished so much that he's very wise. he's very pretty
3:11 pm
experienced, and he has an incredibly strong team around him. and he's gotten a lot of bipartisan accomplishments done as part of his administration from infrastructure to manufacturing through the chips act. two things with guns for veterans is so much this administration has done in this president has done when the campaign is joined which i, think will happen over the next couple of months when i made it really, you know, people have to choose between candidates i think the president has a very strong case to make >> tom suozzi always good to have you on congratulations on your recent swearing in. and also because i'm a mets fan, congratulations to your son. i'm wishing him good luck. in spring training in the mets organ >> he had a he had a double and a whole brunt today, so much games. so we're very, very excited. yeah, right. excited. >> think we're looking for him on the roster. tom suozzi have a good weekend, still ahead. vice president kamala harris tonight, forcefully calling for in her words, an immediate ceasefire in got it. we're

3:17 pm
allies could help strengthen its air defenses and help prevent these kinds of deadly attacks. nick paton walsh reports from eastern ukraine another night of airstrikes targeting odesa, so-frequent at the moment and so often deadly towards civilians, particularly troubling >> numbers amongst the rising death toll here, particularly timothee, a fourt month old boy and mark, a toddler who would have turned three on sunday. hard to tell often if this is is the purposeful attack against civilian apartment blocks, like the ones that were hit over that night, or whether this is a mistake by the russians who think they're hitting something else, or if they simply just don't care, but it's deeply frequent, deeply troubling as you just heard, then claiming the lives of the very youngest it's also potentially assigned what ukraine says is one of the first things that will suffer because of a lack of western aid. and that's air defenses. are russia is also filling huge amounts of drones and aviation bombs at the moment, they seem
3:18 pm
to have huge supply of those and it comes to amongst troubling signs on the front line, particularly around the east near where i'm standing near the town of avdiivka but where russia took that town about three weeks ago now, ukraine withdrawing from it. but since then, they've been able to apply intense pressure moving forwards and taking some of the villages to the west of that three confirmed that we know of. but the area that ukraine essentially declared its new defensive line now appears to be under intense pressure from russian assault. some geo-located drone footage suggesting in fact that one of the most important villages that ukraine thought it would hold onto to defend that front line. orlivka may now be partially under russian control, or at least destroyed beyond any kind of recognition. this is troubling because it suggests ukraine is not necessarily really in control of its defensive back lines. and it may suggest greater russia momentum than his being discussed publicly by ukrainian officials. also to the new commander of ukraine's forces
3:19 pm
that i was on the set of ski for the second time, berated some of his commanders for poor tactics saying that they had the star thing, the equipment that they needed, but they simply hand done their job. and so now he needed to send advisors in or in some cases make personnel changes stark comments, frankly, in the middle of a pitch battle from the key commander here in ukraine, new to the job after his replacement was taken out by president zelenskyy, the second time that necessarily has indeed suggested to his commanders are not up to the job in this area. and it comes amid signs that russia is really on the front foot here, on the front lines with territory changing hands, potentially stark weeks or months ahead here for ukraine as western munitions and aid dries up fast, and they begin to see what that really means on the battlefield. nick paton walsh, cnn, eastern ukraine to discuss the situation. there in ukraine, as well as the continued delays in us military assistance. former defense
3:20 pm
secretary and former cia director leon panetta joins us now. thanks so much for taking the time this sunday would it be with you, jim? >> so we are >> learning in the last 24, 48 hours at the house speaker mike johnson, republican, has at least allowed republicans never crafts to discuss a another path to approving us military assistance to ukraine. of course, we've been through this many times before, not clear. there's a lot of interests from the house leadership in this, and there seems to be outright opposition to it from donald trump, the presumptive nominee, before your time at the cia and the pentagon, you served in congress for a number of years. do you see a viable path forward through this? congress for us military aid >> well they're absolutely has to be a vote on supplemental that that has to happen and you know, i know there's a lot of talk about some kind of dream package that could come
3:21 pm
together. but very frankly, when there was an effort to deal with the border situation in a bipartisan effort came together in the senate trump said, don't support that and the republicans didn't support it. and it's going to be very difficult to come up with some approach that everybody agrees to with regards to the border, i think that's just a fact look, the houses burning right now, we need to get aid to ukraine. they desperately need it and that vote ought to take place as soon as possible. look leader jeffries, they basically said that the democrats, if there's a problem with the speaker, worried about losing his position that the democrats could even help him retain his position. i don't think there's any excuse now for the house not voting on the supplemental help our viewers understand what would happen if the us indeed abandoned,
3:22 pm
abandons its ally here, in effect, and says, no more, what would it mean for ukraine? what would it mean for europe? >> i've said from the beginning that this is not just about ukraine defending its democracy this is about whether or not we're going to protect democracy in the world in the 21st century, there's a bigger fight going on here with regards to protecting democracy and ukraine is fighting that battle and trying to do everything necessary to protect itself from an invader, putin, who basically attacked ukraine for one reason and one reason only that he did not believe the people of ukraine have the right to determine how to govern themselves. he did not believe that they should have a democracy. so that's the reason the united states and our allies have come together to
3:23 pm
support ukraine. if we stand back now and allow putin to succeed, we are sending an incredibly bad message to the world about the credibility of the united states and the credibility of our allies >> and putin is already speaking openly about slicing off another piece of another sovereign nation that being mauled over the area of transnistria may sound far away, but these are parts of countries in europe and the 21st century. i want to turn now to the middle of these because we heard from vice president kamala harris earlier today saying phrases, she hasn't used before with this level of strength, have a listen, i want to get your comments on what this means. >> the threat of hamas poses to the people of israel must be eliminated. >> and given the immense scale of suffering in gaza, there
3:24 pm
must be an immediate ceasefire >> immediate ceasefire. do you hear a step forward in the administration's push for a ceasefire that you hadn't heard before? >> well, i think it was clear that the effort to try to get a deal that involves a ceasefire, the exchange of hostages, and the delivery of greater humanitarian aid. that israel has agreed to. a framework for that deal and that we're now waiting for hamas hopefully to agree to the same deal. but look, we're not going to get a ceasefire unless the parties agree to a ceasefire and so right now the effort ought to be to do everything necessary to try to get that deal he'll done before ramadan >> in the cia and the pentagon, you been part of negotiations, discussions between us and
3:25 pm
israeli leaders, sometimes difficult. i imagine, and the public split between netanyahu and president biden has been notable on the progress so the war, their attention to the lives of civilians in gaza in gaza. do you sense that daylight, if that's the right respect between israeli and us leaders, is unusually wide right now. and do you sense that us pressure? is growing to the point where it's actually going to move israeli leaders >> will look like i was part of the obama administration where there was sometimes difficult relationships between the president and netanyahu. but ultimately, we continue to work with the israelis. we continue to work together we continue to try to deal with the threats that they were facing and that we were facing. and i think that's what's happening now, is that we're making every effort
3:26 pm
to continue to try to work and negotiate too a possible deal that will i think be critical to our ability, not only to get the hostages exchange, but to provide this critical humanitarian aid that is essential. i realize that we're now doing airdrops. i think it's important to try to provide that help it's a very inefficient way to try to deliver the kind of humanitarian aid that is desperately needed right now in gaza. the only way to get there is to get this deal that all of the party's hopefully will agree to we'll see been a long time coming. former defense secretary leon panetta. thanks so much >> good to be with you. >> and still ahead. the supreme court revealed tonight that a ruling is coming down tomorrow. could it be a decision that could have major impact on the presidential election as relates to that man's name on

3:32 pm
and shan wu, good to have you both on show we're watching this case very closely. tuesday happens to be super tuesday. norm eisen, do you expect that we're gonna get a decision tomorrow on the colorado case? jim most court-watchers thing that this signals a colorado case decision. number one, we have been expecting something before super tuesday, maybe not quite this close to super tuesday in the same news cycle. but number two, the it's unusual for the court to do this. usually it's some special reasons so that points to the 14th amendment and the speed with which they started the 14th amendment emin case and got to oral arguments suggests a speedy answers, so more likely than not yes. show >> going back to when we were listening to the oral arguments coming out of supreme court, it was notable that liberal justices raised questions they've seemed if not equally skeptical. similarly skeptical
3:33 pm
as the conservative justices, i want to play one of the questions raised by hi, justice elena kagan during those arguments. have a listen >> i think that the question that you have to confront is why a single state should decide who gets to be president of the united states. and other words, this question of whether a former president is disqualified for insurrection to be president again, is just say it, it sounds awfully national to me. >> did you read that question? other questions you heard from the liberal justices, is this being likely perhaps a unanimous decision or close to unanimous >> oh, i think it's very likely to be a unanimous decision. i disagree with her analysis of that. i think that the court has been quite comfortable letting states disagree on different topics such as in the abortion notice that situation but certainly from the oral arguments seemed that they were very much leaning towards we're allowing not allowing that case the stand and keeping them on the ballot.
3:34 pm
>> okay. trump's federal election, suburban subversion trial by the original schedule was going to begin tomorrow. that's not going to happen because supreme court did decide to hear trump's argument. he's immune from prosecution in this case that pushes the trial back even further. we don't know when it's going to happen when you look at that case, can we expect equal speed in terms of hearing the arguments now scheduled, i believe to begin april 22, two decision point or might they drag their feet on that one relative to this one? >> it's week of april 22 because they have several days, they have three days there. sit the now be a test, jim, that case has moved by supreme court standards at a brisk pace, not as brisk as the 14th amendment case or other comparable historical cases. usb nixon. but the supreme court can stills signal its seriousness, will they decide the immunity case on the same timetable of
3:35 pm
less than a month after week of april 22, will we get a decision if we do and if absolute immunity is struck down, which i can't imagine how the supreme court is going to elevate when all the other courts have rejected it, that case can still get to trial before the november election can but it's not guaranteed. and i just wonder shan wu, but it can. and that's a fair point. but speed matters at this point because trials take time and why would listen, i get it. you got to decide the ballot case before super tuesday, colorado has its primary on tuesday. that makes sense. but the court in the past, if you go back to bush v. gore, they were like we have to make a decision on this pretty darn quickly. if you go back to the nixon tapes case, we've got to make a decision on this pretty quickly. >> would >> there not be a consistent argument to say, not only do you have to begin a trial prior, but but have the trial answered prior to an election when it gets to an issue as centralists there. presidential
3:36 pm
immunity from well, the way his lawyers argument from any and all crimes >> yeah, i think it should be of the same time, urgency. i think there's a little bit of a double-standard going on. first of all, delays here in coming down with the colorado decision so close to super tuesday delay would demand he could signal that there's some back-and-forth dissonance among the justices. another way to look at it though, is why is there not equal pressure about the election with regard to immunity as regarding valid? and if the justices really my question right now if the justices are really, we're just calling balls and strikes. why should you care that super tuesday is on tuesday? why should you care when the election is you're just taking your time to decide the case. but they seem to care a lot more about the ballot issue, having trump on the ballot than they do about resolving the immunity issue quickly enough that to trial how can start and you're right. trial. it takes much longer to ramp up. then everyone's going and on super tuesday. so to me raises an
3:37 pm
eyebrow as to what's really going on there. >> i am i right. you're suggesting partisanship on the court. >> oh, absolutely. >> okay. i just want to be clear. >> i actually think that they should be held to the nixon standard of 16 in days to get an opinion out that that is the more a posit precedent than the approximate month they've taken what the 14th amendment and what difference does it make if they decide before super tuesday or not? the colorado court's decision is stayed. trump is on the ballot it has no practical outcome, and you could even argue that they're inserting themselves into partisanship because they're giving donald trump a big legal win. the day before super tuesday. do you think he's going to just ignore that or is he going to use that on super tuesday? >> well, that yeah, that's probably pretty good bet. share. >> norm eisen thanks so much to both you. >> and still ahead. trump will reportedly meet with hungary's

3:43 pm
putin has so little respect for obama that he started to throw around the nuclear war terror you've >> heard that nuclear, he started to talk nuclear weapons today i was waiting for that to happen. but we have a full a full as a precedent what does he mean by waiting for that to happen? anyway, it's not the first time he's confused. biden and obama as both he and president biden faced questions about their age, their mental sharpness for office. but another takeaway from trump's remarks here is the bit about putin having little respect for the president, the insinuation. trump believes that putin has respect for trump. let's discuss with professor of history at new york university, ruth been yet, she's also the author of strongmen, mussolini to the president so with this, this praise for an unwillingness to criticize putin. it goes back years with
3:44 pm
trump while he was president, since he's been president before he's been president i've asked numerous of trump's own advisers how they explained that they tend to explain it by saying, he envies their power and i wonder if you feel the same way putin's power is xi's power. kim jong-un's power absolutely. >> and my book, strongman is the first book came out in 2020 to have trump is in it as a leader who is following the authoritarian playbook. and trump has actually been trying to educate americans to think that karien leaders murderous dictators like putin and xi, and the leader of north korea, that is a positive model of leadership. he's worked very hard to praise them at every turn, we have to see this as a kind of re-education of americans to think that
3:45 pm
democratic leaders are whether it's biden or obama, or fools. and putin and xi are intelligent and wonderful people. >> let's get this information works. i mean, you had someone like tucker carlson go there, go to one grocery store and somehow praised the system as superior, ignoring the reality, trump is expected to, in this vein, meet with hungary's viktor orban at mar-a-lago next week, victor orban is a far-right nationalist. we should note, he also shares something with trump, which is an opposition to further nato military assistance to you grant made the point about this, ruth is it's not just about admiration for the idea of these guys. is that he shares their policy positions. he again, i've spoken to advisors, people who served trump at senior roles in his last administration. they believe in a second term he will take the us out of nato. so it's not just rhetorical it's consequential, is it not
3:46 pm
>> absolutely. then orban's an important hub in this kind of far-right fascist international that's being constructed. and he, you know, he's always been quite tight with trump when he came to the white house as in 2019, trump said, oh, it's like we're twins and as you say, they're not just twins ideologically, the types of nativist anti-immigrant conspiracy theories against george soros, who is so or bonds big nemesis all of this has led to extremely repressive the policies in hungary and orban is a client of putin. and so they have that in common whatever the nature exactly of their various respective ties with putin, they are working very hard in what they do with their policies and their speeches to make things easy. dear for putin. >> and trump >> said, we're going to let putin do whatever he wants and
3:47 pm
orban has shown that he seems to agree. >> let me ask you this because not only does trump praised the putins of the world, he is low to criticize them. and you could draw a straight line from his unwillingness to say anything critical about putin following the death of alexey navalny back to that moment in helsinki, when he wouldn't even call putin out for interfering in the 2016 election? that's sounds a little bit like fear. and i wonder, do, do the putins of the world, do they see trump as strong or as someone that they can manipulate? >> well >> kremlin propaganda shows have made fun of trump repeatedly as a kind of useful fool of putin and so they see the who is the patron and who is the client very well. and we also have to tell talk about flows of money because one of
3:48 pm
trump's sons, before he was running for president said we don't need external funding for trump. organization is private business because we have all the funding we need from russians so they're implications and flows of money and influence that are not just about trump admiring putin, but a whole other universe of ties. >> and >> those, those ties and flows of money are shared by the gop it's been guy at concerning analysis. thanks so much and coming up this hour, we're learning new details about just a terrifying night at six flags outside of atlanta. we're gonna be back in a moment with details that night on the ice, he saw something someone in sounds hiding something have two, diego to get to the truth

after it and i like that, rafael romo. thanks so much. lies, corruption bribery prostitution in the new cnn original series, united states of scandals hit an anchor and chief washington of correspondent, jake tapper dives into some of the most sensational political controversies to dissect the truth from the spin. here's a preview of tonight's episode tonight we're bringing you the story of eliot spitzer, the former new york governor, who had made his name taking down white-collar criminals, called the sheriff >> of wall street. he had been sent to albany on a wave of overwhelming support from voters, but his time in office was cut short when it was real that spitzer, also known as client nine, had been soliciting sex workers. this it came out through a sting of a prostitution ring. i talked to members of spritzers inner circle, including his former lieutenant governor david paterson, who offered this insight into spitzer is thinking in a telltale sign of his hubris. spitzer was so
3:56 pm
confident he would become governor. he started staffing his administration years before the election one time. >> spitzer said to me, there's someone i'd like to interview be lieutenant governor, but i wouldn't want to be rejected. now i realize he's talking about me and he was right i didn't want lieutenant governor. and at the time, hillary clinton was a junior senator from new york. so i said to spits, what if hillary clinton becomes president? you pick the new senator i would be your guide. and spencer said something to me at that point, it was very prophetic. stay out of trouble and you're my god can say to that was physician kill myself >> warily, governor spitzer should have heeded his own advice. what adds to the hypocrisy here is that one of the spritzers very first acts in office was to pass one of the toughest sex trafficking laws in the united states, one that he himself was breaking. we're going to have more oren. how hubris and ego took down the man on his way to perhaps
